Virgo Career Horoscope for October 2014

Deep thoughts

Staying cool under intense conditions is a key to your professional well-being this month. That's because your cerebral ruling planet, Mercury, will be retrograde from October 4-25, a period when miscommunication is more common. Handling details and addressing travel and equipment issues with patience, precision and skill will go a long way to reduce the likelihood of problems. If you have any questions about the accuracy of information, double-check to be sure to avoid unnecessary complications.

On the plus side, Mercury Retrograde is favorable for reconnecting with people from your past, and for regenerating interest in subjects you've ignored for quite a while. The life-giving Sun is in Libra and your 2nd House of Self-Worth until October 23. This should give you a more objective picture of income and resource matters.

Mercury backs over the Sun on October 16 to offer a great deal of clarity about your economic and psychological needs. If you're considering any investments in education or materials, it's wise to have a knowledgeable person with whom you can discuss your ideas.

The Sun shifts into passionate Scorpio on October 23, which is also the day of the New Moon. This occurs in your 3rd House of Learning and Local Travel, triggering the desire to deepen your education and explore nearby places. But you might not feel the full force of this event until Mercury stops its backward motion two days later. Deep thinking and engaging in confidential conversations are powerful sources of insight and inspiration in the weeks to come.
